Parasitoid wasps as effective biological control agents
Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2019 Biological control (biocontrol) is a safe, sustainable approach that takes advantage of natural enemies such as predators, parasitic insects or pathogens to manage pests in agroecosystems. Parasitoid wasps, a very large evolutionary group of hymenopteran

Chemical Cues in Tritrophic Interaction on Biocontrol of Insect Pest [PDF]
Journal of Pure and Applied Chemistry Research, 2017 Tritrophic interaction among host plant-herbivore-parasitoid involves chemical cues. The infested plant by herbivores has been reacted to produce volatiles which is a cue used by the herbivore parasitoids for host location.

Insects, 2021 Temperature is particularly important for ectotherms, including endoparasitoid wasps that develop inside another ectotherm host. In this study, we tested the impact of three temperatures (20 °C, 25 °C and 30 °C) on the host–parasitoid immune interaction ...

Impact of a nonnative parasitoid species on intraspecific interference and offspring sex ratio
Scientific Reports, 2021 In an assemblage of multiple predators sharing a single prey species, the combined effects of the component species may scale unpredictably because of emergent interspecific interactions.

Biodiversity of hymenopteran parasitoids [PDF]
Current Opinion in Insect Science, 2023 Parasitoid wasps are the most successful group of insect parasitoids, comprising more than half the known diversity of Hymenoptera and probably most of the unknown diversity. This lifestyle has enabled them to be used as pest control agents conferring substantial economic benefits to global agriculture.
